Jonathan was hiding in the corner, vomiting heavily into the sand, emptying everything in his stomach. But next to him, Evelyn looked excited.
"Did we just fly in the sky? No airplane or any machinery, just like free birds?"
Rick·O'Connell held the gun in his hand tightly and nodded stiffly. He tried hard to stay calm, but couldn't help but mutter to himself, "First it was the Mummy, then it was a wizard, and now it's flying in the flesh. What's going on in this world?"
"We have to hurry up," Ian interrupted their shock, "Imhotep will soon kill all the remaining United States people. After discovering that Evelyn is missing, they will definitely chase after them. We must find Golden Book of the Sun as soon as possible."
"Do you have a map of the tomb?" Ian looked at Snape.
"Yes," Snape waved his hand, and a detailed magic map was suspended in the air. "The book should be under the statue of Horus."
Without any nonsense, Snape immediately led the way, and the group quickly arrived at the foot of the statue of Horus.
"How do you know the location of the book?" Evelyn couldn't help but ask. As a professional Egypt scholar, she had to work hard to deduce the location, but this group of mysterious people who suddenly appeared seemed to have opened the entire map.
"I just know," Ian replied calmly.
After reaching the bottom of the statue, they used their wands to easily pry open the compartment at the base, and a thick golden book Winky lay quietly inside.
Ian picked up the heavy golden book and looked at it with great interest. Snape, Lily and Hermione also immediately gathered around, their eyes full of desire to explore.
"We need a key to open it, but the key is in Imhotep's hand," Evelyn reminded.
"No need," Ian said calmly.
He waved his wand and accurately measured the size of the keyhole in the book. Then, he pointed lightly at the sand on the ground.
Transfiguration.
Gather Sand into Gold. A key with a perfect size was instantly formed in the hands of Ian.
He inserted the newly made key into the keyhole and twisted it slightly. With a click, the thick metal cover popped open.
"Actually, we should just try to see if Alohomora can open it," Lily suggested.
"Let's try again next time we have a chance."
"Okay, magic is so convenient," Jonathan next to him couldn't help but chimed in with emotion.
"Do you feel it?" Ian asked without looking away from the book.
"Yeah," the other three nodded at the same time.
"What do you feel?" Evelyn was confused.
"This book itself contains power," Lily explained. "Magic follows the law of conservation of energy. Casting any spell requires an energy source. Therefore, ordinary people cannot use magic."
"But this Golden Book of the Sun is different. It stores huge energy inside and can be used as a medium for casting spells. Therefore, as long as you hold it in your hand and recite the spell, anyone can cast spells through it."
Evelyn suddenly understood. This explains why she was able to Resurrection Imhotep after reading the spell on Black Book of the Dead before.
Suddenly, she found that these four people were completely immersed in the world of reading that ancient book, and no one paid any attention to her.
"Do you four understand Ancient Egyptian?"
Unfortunately, the four top students were busy analyzing the mysteries in the book and had no time to pay attention to her. After a few minutes, they closed the book.
"It's interesting," Ian murmured to himself, "This book contains countless spells and curses that take away lives."
"Although it's called 'Book of the Living', the content inside is all about how to deprive mortals of life."
"This also means that Black Book of the Dead must have recorded a large number of spells on how to save Resurrection's life," Ian's eyes Blink glowed with greed.
With these two books, his understanding of death magic, healing magic, and spirituality will be raised to a new level.
"Okay, get ready to welcome Imhotep."
"What should we do with him? Send him back to Underworld?" Snape asked.
"Don't be stupid," Lily retorted, "With Golden Book of the Sun, we can weaken and capture him, and then unlock the secrets of immortality by studying his body."
"Lily is right, he is the perfect experimental material," Ian agreed.
"This is too dangerous! We should send him back directly with books!" Evelyn was anxious.
"I agree with her. This thing is too evil. If there is a way to completely solve it, then don't make it extraneous," Rick·O'Connell also interjected.
"Don't worry, as long as he gets Black Book of the Dead from Imhotep, he won't be able to make any waves."
"I don't think so," Rick suddenly raised his gun, pointing the gun at Black Hole's hole at Ian and the others, "I know you are very strong and can do magic and so on. But I cannot allow you to risk the safety of the entire world for your own personal gain."
Ian turned his head and stared calmly into Rick's eyes.
Buzz--
Rick suddenly felt a strong spin. He tried desperately to pull the trigger, but this simple action became extremely difficult at this moment. Then, he felt weak and collapsed to the ground.
"Rick!" Evelyn screamed and rushed over to check on him.
Ian hit the Snap. Evelyn and her brother Jonathan also fainted instantly and fell on the sand.
"What should we do with them now?" Snape asked, with cold eyes. "It would be a pity to kill this girl. Her soul seems to be very special."
"There is no need to kill them," Hermione said.
"Indeed," Ian nodded, "And this girl is the reincarnation of a certain ancient Egypt princess. Both she and O'Connell are inextricably linked to the gods of this world. It's best not to touch them until our strength is fully restored."
"Is there a god in this world?" Lily was a little surprised.
Ian then explained to everyone the "future" he saw and his speculations about the game between Anubis and Osiris.
"In this case, we should act more cautiously," the expression on Snape's face became more serious.
"Let's go and meet that the Mummy."
A few hours later, Imhotep appeared in the main chamber of the mausoleum wrapped in wind and sand.
As soon as he entered the door, he saw four people waiting for him.
"It turns out it's you, the users of Forbidden Witchcraft," Imhotep said in Ancient Egyptian, his voice hoarse and harsh.
"Forbidden Witchcraft? What is that?" Ian asked in fluent Ancient Egyptian. This move made the Mummy slightly stunned.
"You are obviously using it, but you ask me what it is?"
"To be honest, we were just lucky enough to pick up a book that recorded this kind of 'Forbidden Witchcraft', and we are self-taught. Why don't you give us some popular science?" Ian asked tentatively.
Imhotep did not answer immediately, but recited a few spells.
Click! Click!
Four tall the Mummy guards armed with shields and spears emerged from the ground and stood in front of him, ready to attack at any time.
"How about making a deal?" Ian waved his hand, and the unconscious Evelyn floated in front of him out of thin air.
"You tell me about Forbidden Witchcraft, and I will give this girl to you. So you can Resurrection your beloved Anck-su-namun."
Imhotep looked at Evelyn on the ground, then at Ian, and finally said:
"When I was a priest apprentice, I once read a record about Forbidden Witchcraft in an ancient book. According to records, this witchcraft originated from certain individuals who were born with this power."
"It's a talent, an inner strength."
"However, for unknown reasons, the gods banned this witchcraft and purged all those who possessed this gift. They destroyed all knowledge of it."
Ian frowned slightly. This incident was never mentioned in the movie.
But he soon felt relieved. The real world is far more complicated than a two-hour movie, and there are many hidden histories that movies cannot show.
"What about your witchcraft? Doesn't it come from within?"
"My power comes from the great Bleach Anubis," Imhotep replied, with a hint of fanaticism in his tone, "I have told you everything I know, give me the girl."
"As you wish."
Ian waved his hand, and Evelyn flew towards Imhotep.
Imhotep stretched out his dry hand to catch her.
Just when he was about to touch Evelyn, something unexpected happened.
"Accio!"
Snape suddenly took action, pointed his wand, and the thick black book in Imhotep's hand instantly flew out and fell into Snape's hand.
At the same time, Lily held the golden Golden Book of the Sun in his hand and read out the spell he had prepared.
Imhotep watched in horror as the "Evelyn" in his hand suddenly turned into a handful of yellow sand - that was an extremely clever Transfiguration.
Wrath swallowed up his sanity in an instant. However, before he could counterattack, the sound of Golden Book of the Sun's spell had already resounded through the tomb.
An invisible force enveloped him.
Imhotep felt that the Divine Power in his body was instantly cut off, and his body became extremely heavy and weak.
His eyes darkened, and the arrogant high priest passed out immediately.
